Has riding stopped feeling the way it used to?

This free book will not ask you to be braver than you feel. Across eight chapters, it explains what is really happening when confidence becomes fragile, and shows you there is a clear, realistic way forward.

Inside you’ll find:

• Why confidence can feel so fragile, even when you “should” be fine
• What is really happening in your body and mind when nerves take over
• Why “just ride more” and “push through it” so rarely work
• The cycle that keeps riders stuck, and why it is not your fault
• An introduction to the SETTLED Rider Framework, and why calm must come before confidence

Each chapter ends with reflection questions to help you apply it to your own riding.

Written by Margie Riley, a lifelong horsewoman and coach who has found her own way back to confident riding more than once.
